Oh no, not again. Don't you just hate it when DaVinci Resolve loses track of your media? Like when you move a project but forgot to include the image files. Well, I have a trick for you. Watch this video...

Quick JPG Stills In DaVinci Resolve 20

Website tips for this post are:

• How to grab a still frame (the hard way). Locate your frame for a still in the timeline. Change to Color page and find the still again. In the viewer with your cursor over the image, right click to open a popup menu. Select "Grab Still." This will generate a copy of the frame in your Gallery. Then find the still in your Gallery and right click on it. Then find "Export" and click on that. A file directory window opens where you can accept the name or change it if you like. Then hit "Save." Wow, that is a lot of clicks, isn't there a better way?
• How to grab a still frame (the easy way). Locate your frame for a still in the timeline. Tap "Shift + P". Name your still and save.
• Okay, you will need a little prep for the easy way. Follow the steps laid out in the above video to create a new keyboard short cut, that grabs a still and exports it right to your computer.

Need to get some video editing done. Get expert screen capture videos made by BWT Videos...

Hi all Tim here. BWT did a study a few months ago of like minded website creators and came to the conclusion that excellent imagery is better for website growth than just ordinary images alone.

Then I thought I need an image to represent this category. Something that shows what it is about. The following image is a screenshot from a video creation tip tutorial I made...

About this image

It is called "davinci-tim-edit-screen-1080x608.png" and is a screenshot of a tutorial I made in Camtasia about DaVinci Resolve. The tutorial is about creating quick stills in DaVinci Resolve 20. Screen capture and editing in Camtasia. With color correction in DaVinci Resolve.

Completely shot and edited by yours truly, me, Tim Koen. I am particularly proud of this shot because every idea (except for the Turkey Dinner) was concieved, carried out and confabulated in house. I made all the screen captures, a-roll, b-roll, did the narration, titling and background layout (with the help of a good cook).
